THE LOCATION
Join us at K'Gari (formerly known as Fraser Island), located in Queensland, just north of Noosa.
Beautiful K’Gari, the largest sand island in the world, is the only place where lush, tall rainforests grow upon sand dunes.
The indigenous people named the island K’Gari which means “Paradise”, and we know you will agree.
Our luxurious beach house is sweetly situated amongst the trees where you'll be immersed in nature and calmed by the gentle ocean waves. Every room has a water view, and the beach is only a few steps away. We’ll wake with morning yoga upon the sand, and bask in the stunning sunsets from the massive veranda. This pristine nature-scape profoundly supports the transformational work we will be doing.

FAQ's
What if I have never practiced yoga and I’m not fit?
We got you sister! Our yoga classes are designed to meet you where you’re at! Every exercise has modifications for both beginners and experienced yoginis so that you and everyone receives the benefits.
Do I have to participate in all of the scheduled sessions?
To receive the full benefit of our unique formula, we strongly recommend you participate fully in the program.
However, this is YOUR journey, so you are free to do as much or as little as you choose. There is free-time allotted each day to take a nature walk, swim in one of the pristine swimming pools or the beach, or other offerings at Kingfisher Bay Resort.
What additional costs might I incur?
Your ferry transfers and carry-ons are included in the retreat fee, however any checked baggage incurs an additional $25 per bag, so we encourage you to travel light.
In your down time you are welcome to visit the Day Spa, or explore a little more, but otherwise everything is included.
What if I feel nervous about attending? I have never participated in an event like this before.
Feeling nervous or anxious is normal when you know you are about to shift your life in the most profoundly positive way. You might also have considerations about sharing your experiences and healing with women you haven’t yet met. Though we completely understand and validate how you feel, we have learned that when women come together in healing, the most tremendous, supportive, and powerful bond is created. Your facilitators are experienced in creating a safe container, and we always ensure that each participant receives the customized support that they need.
“The greater the obstacle, the more glory in overcoming it.” – Molière
I am on the fence. Can you help me decide?
This is a rare opportunity to participate in a powerful program for change, and it might very well be the best decision you have made in a really long time. While there are sessions that are likely to move you through your comfort zone, we believe you will be entirely relieved and joyful that you attended in the days, months and years beyond.
And If not now, when?
“We can't solve problems by using the same kind of thinking we used when we created them.” – Einstein
I’d love to attend, but I feel guilty taking this time out for myself.
Did you know that women account for 80% of chronic illness? This is because women spend most of their lives often putting the needs of their family and others before their own. We sincerely encourage you to feel into your heart, and ask yourself if this program is something your body and mind needs. Grant yourself this extended weekend away, free yourself from your regular routine so you can fully focus on yourself, your healing, and your needs.
"How you love yourself is how you teach others to love you." – Rupi Kaur
